ADAPT-ABI 2012

Concrete bridge design software – simple, practical, & powerful.

ADAPT-ABI 2012 is a general-purpose program developed for the analysis, design and construction
phase support of concrete bridges. It is built on a robust finite element analysis engine that explicitly
models time-dependent aspects of a project’s construction phasing and time-dependent material
behavior. It is a practical design tool that allows bridge design engineers to quickly and efficiently
model their bridge projects and get the analysis results they need - regardless of how simple or
complex a project is. The software offers an easy-to-use 3D modeling environment and unlimited
flexibility in the modeling of bridge geometries and construction sequences – including temporary
structures. ADAPT-ABI is the essential bridge modeling and analysis tool for every engineer.

Typical Applications:
 Pre-stressed and post-tensioned girder
 Spliced girder
 Cable-stayed
 Box girder
 Segmentally constructed bridge systems, also with traveler
 Precast or cast-in place
 Construction stage analysis and geometry control
 Design of temporary shoring and support structures

Key Modeling & Analysis Features:


 Time-dependent analysis of construction
 Extendable moving load library with predefined load trains
 Section Manager allows you to import any cross section or to
define any section geometry, also with voids
 Explicit composite interaction between girders and deck
 Project Browser makes it easy to specify and manage any
construction sequence
 Design code library can be extended by a user defined
concrete models
 Applied displacement or temperature gradients
 Easy geometry control during construction
 Structural components can be cast, installed or removed during Supported Design Codes:
